This Friday, we’ll be celebrating some of the brilliant people helping great care happen every day.

We’re proud to be sponsoring the Deputy Manager Award at the National Care Awards 2026, recognising a role that often sits right at the heart of a home.

Great deputy managers support the team around them, know the people behind the care plans and step in when things need doing, often without making much fuss about it.

They help bring consistency to busy days, support colleagues when things get difficult and make sure good intentions turn into good care.

That’s why this is such a lovely award for us to be part of.

We’ve put together a few of the things we think great deputy management looks like ahead of the awards this Friday.

Good luck to all of the finalists; we can’t wait to celebrate with you.

Winter has a habit of making the little things feel rather bigger.

A delayed delivery. An icy entrance. A heating problem. A few members of the team unable to get in. None of them sound dramatic on their own, but in a care home they can quickly make an already busy day much harder.

Being winter-ready is about thinking ahead before those problems arrive.

That might mean checking your business continuity plans, making sure residents are warm and comfortable, preparing for seasonal infections, or taking another look at the paths and entrances around the home.

Because good preparation isn’t just about being stocked up.

It helps protect residents, supports care teams and keeps everyday care running with as little disruption as possible.

We’ve pulled together 4 things worth checking as we head into the colder months.

Have a swipe through and save this one for later.

Care teams carry a lot.

And when pressure starts to build, it doesn’t always look obvious. It can show up as someone becoming quieter, losing motivation, struggling to concentrate or simply not seeming themselves.

For International Stress Awareness Week, we wanted to focus on what support can look like in practice.

Not just telling people to “look after themselves”, but looking at the things around them too: workload, communication, role clarity, whether they feel listened to, and whether support is actually there when they need it.

Sometimes the difference is simple. A proper check-in. Making a break possible. Noticing when someone is struggling. Asking what would help, and then acting on what you hear.

When care teams feel supported, the impact goes further.

Stronger teams. More consistent care. Better experiences for the people relying on them every day.

Looking after the people providing care is part of delivering good care.

A care home has enough surprises without an empty cupboard being one of them. 🎃

Keeping on top of everyday essentials is one of those jobs that often goes unnoticed... until something runs out.

Having the right things ready when they’re needed helps keep the day running smoothly, avoids unnecessary disruption and gives care teams one less thing to worry about.

Because when things are sorted behind the scenes, there’s more time to focus on what really matters: the people in your care.

So this Halloween, we’ll leave the scares to the costumes.

No tricks. Just the essentials you can rely on.

Halloween came to Care Shop today… and we definitely didn’t do things by halves. 🎃👻

From cobweb-covered windows and a very impressive office spider, to a ghost hunt and costume competition, plenty was going on.

But the best bit? Our Halloween raffle raised over £200 for Adopt A Grandparent, helping support a charity that means a lot to us and brings companionship and connection to older people across the UK. 💚

A huge thank you to everyone who got involved, donated, entered, and helped make the day such a good one.

A little bit of fun, a lot of team spirit, and money raised for a brilliant cause- not a bad way to spend Halloween eve. 🎃

Behind every great care home are people helping to keep everything moving, supporting their teams and making sure residents continue to receive the care they deserve...

That’s why we’re incredibly proud to be sponsoring the Deputy Manager Award at The National Care Awards 2026.

This year’s finalists represent some brilliant examples of leadership across the care sector - people making a difference to their residents, colleagues and services every single day.

We wanted to take a moment to celebrate every one of them.

Have a look through to meet this year’s Deputy Manager Award finalists.

A huge congratulations to everyone shortlisted, and the very best of luck for the awards! We can’t wait to celebrate with you. 💚

There's nothing quite like seeing a product in action to get everyone asking questions!

And we certainly had plenty of those at Care Shop today!

We welcomed some of our suppliers for a day of hands-on training and practical demonstrations. It's one thing being told what a product can do, but quite another seeing it in action and trying it for yourself.

A big thank you to Kimberly-Clark Professional, Diversey, Truvox, Ontex, Odorbac and Cleanline for taking the time to show us what's new, what's different and, more importantly, what actually works.

For Care Shop, days like this matter. We can have all the products in the world, but if we don't understand how they make life easier for the Care Homes using them, we're missing the point.

Whether that's saving someone time, helping a care team work more efficiently or simply finding a better way of doing something, that's where the real value is.

Lovely to see everyone getting involved, and a big thank you to the team for embracing it all.

Now to put all that knowledge to good use!

Good leadership in a care home is felt everywhere...

It’s in how teams feel supported, how residents feel known and cared for, and how a home keeps moving even on the busiest days.

Deputy Managers play such an important part in making that happen. They’re often balancing people, standards, problem-solving, and the everyday realities of care, all while helping create the consistency that residents and teams rely on.

That’s why we’re really proud to be sponsoring the Deputy Manager Award at the National Care Awards 2026.

This award is a chance to recognise the people helping turn good leadership into better experiences for residents, stronger teams and better outcomes across their homes.

Over the next week, we’ll be celebrating this year’s finalists and some of the brilliant work happening across the sector.

A huge congratulations to everyone shortlisted. We can’t wait to celebrate with you.

There’s always plenty to come away with after The Care Show, but a few things really stuck with us this year...

One was around growth. There’s clearly a lot of opportunity in the sector, but growth only really works if providers can still invest in their people, their homes and the quality of care they’re delivering.

Another was quality. Chris Badger’s keynote was a good reminder that it can’t just live in policies and paperwork. What matters is what residents and staff actually experience every day.

Kiran Gill made a very simple point that’s probably one of the hardest to get right: know what makes your service different, then make sure people feel that difference consistently. From the very first enquiry to the everyday moments in care.

If you were at The Care Show, what stayed with you afterwards?

We’re incredibly proud to announce that Care Shop has officially been certified as a Great Place to Work!

But what makes a workplace great? We think it’s the people.

From our warehouse teams keeping things moving, to our colleagues supporting customers every day, it’s the people behind Care Shop who make it such a special place to be.

And who better to tell you what it’s like to work here than the people who know it best? 🎥

This recognition means so much to us because it’s based on feedback from our own colleagues.

A huge thank you to everyone across Care Shop for making this possible. This achievement belongs to all of you! 💚
